Operative status as recorded: LIVE_PAGE_CURRENT_AS_CRAWLED. Published during the 2026-07-24 completeness pass. SOURCE DRIFT MEASURED 2026-07-24: the page(s) these requirements were captured from have been edited since capture. A live re-read found 13 of 16 published requirements (81%) still present on 1 source page (/courts-judges/judge-kristine-van-vorst/judge-van-vorst-division-procedures/). The missing text may have been reworded, moved, or withdrawn — BenchPath does not guess which. Confidence LOWERED to medium until a human re-reads the source. Re-verify before relying on any single clause. [RECOMPOSED VERBATIM 2026-08-04 (campaign wave, topical (July quotes no longer live)): 3 bullet(s) quoted whole from the live page, sha256 e3f7a374eed69e5a15a180353668decf118b6c9a6b3278c89e9b7bf8667a5383; the prior summary-class text is superseded.]
Judge Costello's AI section simply restates amended Rule 2.515(d)(2) — the post-AOSC26-12 statewide standard — a compliance model, not a local mandate: signers certify cited authorities exist and are accurately cited, with the rule's own sanctions.
The strongest in-the-wild confirmation of the 2026 statewide AI rule: Judge Bantner's page expressly states his prior AI requirements are REMOVED because of the May 28, 2026 amendment of Rule 2.515 — signing a filing now itself certifies the authorities exist and are accurately cited.
